Posted by a private BulkLoads.com member.	Posted by a private BulkLoads.com member. Hey everyone. Im an O/O of a tri/axle dump truck. Have my own ICC/MC and all the good stuff. I run PA,NJ,DE. Mostly run all stone. But work is kinda slow and i was looking on these load boards and have seen some end dump loads that start and end in the 3 states i run. But my question is?? Is my body on my truck big enough to handle the volume of light stuff. I can get a 24 ton payload on. But even if i load stone or sand it is pile alittle above my boards. Should i even waste my time calling these people about the loads on here. Is the stuff you guys haul light to where my body wont be big enough to get a good payload. It is 17.5 feet long with 60in sides. Thanks.

Your box is to small for any grain or fertilizer to get a full load maybe look into a removeable tip top setup with a good tarp. Add a pintle hook and pull a end dump trailer. With some luck you might find a niche to fill.
